Just read about @KeshaRose. Beyond shocked and stunned that someone can be forced into working with an alleged rapist. Wow. Awful.

Adele leads global music industry hopes
The artist had filed a lawsuit against her music producer Dr Luke three years ago for alleged sexual assault and harassment, reported Billboard.
Kesha also said she was a victim of emotional harassment, alleging she was fat-shamed by being called a “fat refrigerator.” However, Dr Luke counter-charged the claim and filed another lawsuit against the pop star for breach of contract and defamation.
The legal battle prevented her from releasing new music on her own accord, without producer Dr Luke — something which Kesha was fighting to overcome so she could produce her own music independently.
